I would like to hear from others on usenet which specific
hard disk drives are interchangeable with the Tandon TM503 that
is currently in my 15 meg primary hard disk for a 16A.  I would
also like to know what if any wiring changes have to be done.
I would also like some feedback that people might have on the
reliability of replacement drives.  What I would like to do
is increase the capacity and at the same time the reliability.

This is the third TM503 that I have gone through (at my expense
I might add) in the last year on this trash 80 and now this one
is giving some hard errors like it is about ready to die.
